A crazy but interesting story. The lives of Zehra and Hande mirror one another. One from a poor family ends up adopted into a wealthy family, the other from a wealthy family adopted by a poor family. Both are treated badly by men. Both run away, or talk of running away. Both are thought to have been killed, but actually survived. Ironically, each one ends up helping to save the other one. Both mothers kill the fathers or try to. The series begins and ends with men calling out 'Zehra'. First by her brother in pursuit of his sister for reasons of honour, custom and tradition, and in the end by her lover for reasons of romantic love... Zehra runs away from the first man, her physical brother, but runs into the arms of the second man, Genco. They were all trapped in lies and darkness. The truth sets them free. It sets Serkhan and Sule free from their fears, but also sets Zehra free from Zadir and Sule, and sets Genco and Zehra free from falsehood, and into the light and life. Like Judas, Nadir kills himself rather than repent and face up to his crime coming into the light. I am reminded of some things Mahatma Gandhi said: ‘My uniform experience has convinced me that there is no other God than Truth (Satya).’.
